DINA MARTINA: AMPLE WATTAGE - LIVE AT THE FLYING BEAVER PUBARET!
DINA MARTINA: AMPLE WATTAGE!
"The most original drag performer in America today." -- Michael Musto, The Village Voice
Cult sensation DINA MARTINA returns to Toronto with the all-new DINA MARTINA: AMPLE WATTAGE!
After attaining cult status on the west coast and touring nationally, Martina's official New York debut in 2005 sold out in minutes. Her follow-up shows have left jaded audiences (including Whoopi Goldberg, John Waters, Matt Stone, John Cameron Mitchell, Bruce Vilanch and Jeff Stryker -- a list as strange has her shows) stunned and clamoring for more.
DINA MARTINA: AMPLE WATTAGE! is the show that wowed the crowds in Provincetown and New York City in the summer of 2012, and like all of Martina's surreal shows, it promises to be an amazing blend of unequalled song, unnecessary dance, unattractive costumes and unbelievable video.
Perhaps the best description of Dina comes from a glowing review in Seattle's famed alternative weekly The Stranger: "Her body moves like two pigs fighting their way out of a sleeping bag and her face looks like the collision of a Maybelline truck with a Shoney's buffet, but Dina redefines what it means to be a star."
DINA MARTINA has packed venues throughout Seattle as well as in New York, Provincetown, Philadelphia, Vancouver, Los Angeles, San Francisco and London. Martina has shared the bill with acts such as Modest Mouse, Margaret Cho, Justin Bond, Nina Hagen and The Village People. She's the recipient of two GLAAD Media Award nominations for Best Off-Off-Broadway Show, two Footlight Awards from The Seattle Times (1999 & 2004), a 1997 nominee for a Seattle Stranger Fringe Theater Award for Best Solo Show, and a finalist for the 2007 Alpert Award. Dina Martina is the recipient of The Stranger's 2012 Genius Award for Theater.
